Issue
When switching workspaces by scrolling on the panel, a transparent text box appears in the top-left corner that says "Workspace 1" (or 2, 3, 4). That doesn't disappear like it should, it rather acts like a watermark.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the Smart Panel extension
2. Have the "Action on scrolling" setting set to "Switch bewteen workspaces"
3. Move the cursor to a free area on the panel
4. Scroll

Expected behaviour
A text box appears, showing which workspace you're in. After a short time, it disappears.

Actual behaviour
The text box does not disappear and stays on top of all windows.

Additional Information
This is not the native Workspace text box in the middle of the screen that you get by using the keyboard shortcut. This is a screenshot of the text box:

Hi there!
I found a workaround to this.

1. Open the file home/user/.local/share/cinnamon/extensions/smart-panel@mohammad-sn/extension.js
2. Add return; after this._hideWorkspaceOSD(); inside the function showWorkspaceOSD

  showWorkspaceOSD: function () {
    this._hideWorkspaceOSD();
    return;
    ...

4. Go to settings -> extensions -> configure smart-panel -> click on the top-right icon -> reload the smart-panel extension. You can also just end your session and log in again.

This makes the problematic "Workspace X" message to stop appearing.
